Blueprint is a digital tool used by clinicians to automatically gather patient data, measure patient outcomes, and get deeper insights into how patients respond to care through recurring assessments, worksheets, and connected health data.
To create the report, Blueprint examined anonymized assessment and lifestyle data collected by patients in 2020 and 2021 and documented the findings. The report also features reports on how measurement-based care can improve outcomes for patients already in treatment.
Of the report, Danny Freed, Blueprint CEO and founder, says, "We are in the midst of a mental health crisis, and while the 2020 pandemic both accelerated and intensified that - as very clearly reflected in our data - what we see in 2021 is that these patients are slowly but steadily beginning to bounce back across some key health and lifestyle metrics. When you look at patients who are more active in their mental health treatment plan, the outcomes are even more positive."
The report is released on Thursday, December 16th, at 9 a.m. CST. It will also be available for download on Blueprint's website here.
